A large ovarian cyst like yours (11.28 cm) does increase the risk of complications like torsion or rupture, and surgery is often recommended for cysts of this size. Laparoscopic surgery, removing the cyst through small incisions, is generally considered safe and less invasive than an open procedure. While medication can sometimes shrink smaller cysts, it's less likely to be effective for very large ones.

Question

I'm trying to get pregnant, and I've missed my period for over 25 days now. My last period was on January 16th. I did both a sonography and a urine pregnancy test, and both came back negative. My doctor suggested I take Deviry tablets, 10mg, two tabs a day, but there's still no sign of my period. This has never happened to me before. Could I still be pregnant somehow? I'm also starting to feel really nauseous and weak. What could be going on?

Question
